HOW TO GET RUNNING LOCALLY

If you want to run this application locally, follow these easy steps:

1. Make sure you have Python 2.5 installed

   If you use a Mac with MacPorts, you can use python_select to choose python 2.5. Unforuntately, as of this writing, AppEngine does not support Python 2.6.

2. Install Django 1.1.

   Unfortunately, the AppEngine development server does not like virtualenv, etc. So you'll have to install django 1.1 as a major package. easy_install is a good way to go.

3. Install the App Engine Python SDK.

4. cd into this directory and run dev_appserver.py . to get the local server running.

5. Test by visiting http://localhost:8080/
